Text
The Greek text of the codex is a mixture of text-types. Aland did not place it in any Category.
The text has a lot of corrections made by a later hand.[2] It belongs to the Family 1424.
History
It once belonged to an Archbishop of Ephesus. It was brought to England in 1675 by Philip Traheron, English Chaplain at Smyrna. Traheron made a collation.[2] It was examined by Mill and Wettstein.[3] In 1679 the manuscript was presented to the Lambeth Library,[3] where it is held to the present day.[1]
